this is painful to watch, torturing physicists like that should be illegal.
death0intj It’s kinda funny lol because I would react the same way.
@Siahj The Sleepy Sorcerer now imagine being in small room, with delicate machinery around, where you can't walk off the cringe :)
and physicians
@@A-Ls1 I was reacting the same way
10:16 The dude shows his evil here. And the professor responds in the correct manner. Cringe. Just as if someone was insuinuating he was going to poke someone in their, well... ita obvious. Ew btw.
Have you noticed that you can replace the word "energy" with the word "magic" in that goop lab video and it changes absolutely nothing to its meaning?
Absolutely, right! Those fuckers are just as much charlatans as snake oil salespeople, faith healers and psychics. Just taking money from the gullible and ignorant.
@@hulldragon it actually makes me sad that they got enough money from those types of people to make this show
"energy" to them is VERY different than to people in science. They chuck that word in every "thoery" they have for anything
The word force is abused by these frauds almost as much as energy
exchange "energy" with scam and it begins to make sense.

M;H of course, cause Gordon doesn’t talk.
Bit insecure about the hair though.
@@ankavoskuilen1725 His personality and generally healthy looks more than more add up for the lack of hair. Phil really is a character. :D

@@dewdop 98% of modern politicians some are just not as overt as say others are
Being a STEM student I've found if I can combine enough scientific jargon and present it with enough confidence, I can get the layman to believe nearly anything I say. However if another scientifically literate person was present they'd know immediately I was spewing bs.
43% of people believe anything when you put a number and a % in the mix
@@richardtickler8555 that only works 69% of the time. 42% of everyone knows that.
Ain't this the truth
@@richardtickler8555 60% of the time, it works every time.
sad truth, sometime even high school level scientific jargon is enough to fool people who are supposed to know high school level stuff
I'm really impressed with Brady's 'devil's advocate' act. He actually makes some solid arguments, not promoting this specific nonsense, but in terms of questioning the methodology of ascertaining truth itself.
It turns this from "Phil aggressively mocks a BS peddler", to "Phil exclaims the importance of the Scientific Method".
exactly!
I was incredibly impressed as well
was super impressed! and all these points are extremely useful in terms of having a philosophical/spiritual discussion but as many people including Phil pointed out, it's problematic when it's framed as scientific consensus or even bearing scientific characteristics
I found it distinctly unimpressive - as well as highly annoying. It was basically just a phenomenological hammer to the forehead, saying "But how do you know you know?"
@@charcolew It's important to present a rebuttal like this in order to encourage a scientist to explain something complex in a tactful way. The goal is to inform people who might be less rational than a scientist in a way that doesn't consider them less intelligent. The path to a rational future is not only paved by exceptional education, it's paved by exceptional communication too.
It does work. He was making professor Moriarty flinch and wrench his whole body just by using his asshat words. 😂

I really like how the camera-guy keeps challenging the narrator by asking all the questions and playing devil's advocate. It makes the narrator have to clearly explain all of his logic and keep on his toes.
I am thoroughly impressed with Dr. Moriarty's open-mindedness and professionalism as displayed here. He made it all the way to @13:35 before resorting to the word "bollocks"!
@@fugreek reasonably tho xD
Open-mindedness is the last thing I would associate with him.
Dude, spoilers!
i've never heard him say that before xD
If only he had resisted for two seconds longer.
Brady, that was really quite a cruel thing to do to Professor Moriarty.
Well, he did worse to Sherlock.
calling philip moriarty professor moriarty is more cruel! haha
Lol, it did look like it was physically hurting him to listen to it at parts.
Moriarty deserves to get taken down a peg or two.

"The body is multi-dimensional"
Me: *looks at my 3-space Dimensional hand existing in 1 time-dimension*
"Well... wha'd'ya know? He's not wrong" :I
I thought the same thing lol
I really really appreciate this video. I’m a bodyworker, and dudes like on that goop ridiculousness make it so I’m constantly having to re-educate clients on what REALLY happens in a session. Any emotional releases & a majority of “unwinding” occurs as a result of giving the client the time and space to feel comfortable, and reassurance that there is no judgement in their processing of emotions or trauma. That’s not changing their subatomic particles, it’s therapy.
AND-they’re all in the room on tables at the same time in front of cameras(and expectations) with his loud and cueing sounds. That’s called group-think.
Dang, with two sentences you changed my opinion entirely of that work. Yeah, if someone gave me the space and suggestion to get all goofy with my body, it would feel kind of freeing and therapeutic. No woo necessary.
Watching professor Moriarty trying not to explode is worth every second. Apart from that I think he is a lot more reasonable than that goopy nonsense deserves.
Oh, come now, one can't be too reasonable.
Angry science rants are indeed awesome..
@Sandcastle • true, but he has got a point about scientists sometimes getting far to much traction/media attention for their personal unsubstantiated ideas due to their accomplishments in the field.
You can trace a lot of the vitamin c woo right back to Linus Pauling and his weird personal obsession with it for instance-curing cancer/the common cold etc
Just shows Hollyweird is so out of touch.

Love the deliberately “stubborn” guy in the background. The scientific community often positions itself as clearly in the right and while I know that most of the time when debunking this type of stuff we are, it can never hurt to make sure we’re not being hypocritical and be exactly as scrutinising about ourselves as we are about them.

"The man is talking out of his nether regions" - loved this
he was talking about the frequency of urination.
That is exactly the moment I decided to up vote the video.
I was not expecting to hear "that's bollocks". I mean, it definitely is, but I wasn't expect him to say it in so few words :P
I'm gonna borrow this whenever I want to say BS
If a medical doctor said “I have this hypothesis” and began treating all their patients without any evidence of the treatment’s actual efficacy, I’m pretty sure they’d have their license revoked.
And probably do some jail time because of malpractice and endangering patient lives. But hey, in this crazy world we can expect that this will not happen to Paltrow.
1 guy with a pseudo PhD wrote a book on how vaccines cause autism and published it on Amazon. Look at the world now- as if having a verifiable doctorate matters; it's what the people believe, not what all other professionals think.
@@Hysteria98 I think that guy had a real phd but published that nonsense, lost his phd because of that and now he is still preaching that dangerous hypothesis, I am not sure. Anyway it just proves how gullible people can be.
But that's why there are clinical trials. To take a hypothesis and show its efficacy. The trials are done with controls and placebos to see if the results are being influenced by the experimenter or the subject. Prof. Moriarty is saying that's the standard that should be held to the guy at Goop.
If they would be just waiving their hands in the air, well, then would be not that much harm but to steal money from gullible patients.
"I don't want to come across as the informed scientist ridiculing everything..."
10 minutes later:
"This is just nonsense. This is really just nonsense."
"That man is talking out of his nether regions."
xD
Well, he didn't ridicule "every thing", just one.
He couldn't deal with the shear pretentiousness
he didn't say he wouldn't ridicule it, he just said he didn't want to come across a certain way
Well, think how he would've reacted if he _didn't_ care about that
more like influencing the potential energy of naive people's wallets
Lol yeah
This is the perfect video to send to my 18 year old daughter who has just recommended the Goop series to me.
Hope that went well
Wtf?why is your daughter watching goop
It’s never too late to put your children up for adoption!
Benjamin McCann To be fair, it isn’t anything intelligent women are watching either.
Time to have a serious discussion with your daughter.
Brady tried to pump that blood pressure through the roof in this one, I mean he used all the bad "sicence skeptic" argument in the book. He was doing a great job as the ignorant's advocate :)
A "Devil's advocate" perhaps?
And I could sense the high blood pressure through my screen, like a thermometer...lol
haha "ignorant's advocate" is a great term for it XD
I was going to say something of the same sort! I loved Brady's devil's advocate role as much as the frustration of the Prof. :D :D
Ignorant by choice or not?
Someone has to do that in every context. If we don't, we could miss out a fuller understanding of the subject.
I really like Brady's playing the Devils advocate, hes doing it so well, nailing every smart rebutal that pseudo scientists can send...

If you listen carefully enough, you can hear the cries of millions of brain cells.
and then silence.

I can feel the energy field of those angry brain cells
But they have been energetically cleaned of their energy, so now there’s nothing left for them to cry about.
They are just empty little sacs waiting to be filled with some other goopy nonsense...
"The body doesn't end here at the skin, the body is multidimensional"
Goop lab discovered the 3rd dimension
But the 3rd dimension is only one dimension, it is different from 2d, 1d even 4d so even then they are wrong
@@phaeton5394 But you can't access life multidimensional without the body & since we didn't disprove ghost's yet, the statements stands. Even if we know, it does not work like that. The body is multidimensional, hence our sense development. If we were only 3 Dimensional, things like visions or dejavu's would not make any sense, since we couldn't "leave" our body. How many folds does your brain have, how many make up one dimension? And if the brain is part of the body, isn't the body multidimensional?
I dont think much of these "labs" but the rethoric of the scam is pretty decent and uses every grey area to nest itself in. Gotta love marketing.
@@Chrisisplays Time to drink the goop
Chris;is The body isn’t “multi-dimensional.” We simply exist within 3 physical dimensions (up, down, forward/backward) and one temporal dimension (time, although there is much debate on what “time” actually is, though we experience and can measure it similarly to the three spacial dimensions).
The word “dimension” literally describes physical space, not “layers of reality” or whatever. Further, though this wasn’t brought up: the allegory of “flat world” is used as an analogy to help describe what a higher numerical dimension might look to us in proportion to what our three physical dimensions would look like to a “second dimensional” being. It in no way validates the idea that “flat land” is real or even could be. It’s used to paint a mental picture and that’s all.
So, no, literally nothing said has anything legitimacy at all.
@@atmassylphen6785 So is water not the 4th physical dimension, or does that only go for movie science?
I don't know what you had in mind, but it is a given, that words are often theories until proven through experiments, tests, readings and countertests. Given, that, as you say, there is no 4th dimension our body exists in, the theory of goop still stands, that the 4th dimension can effect our body. In order to test that, we would have to be able to measure the 4th dimension, right? I think you're to biased and eager to see this as a fluctual input, but I agree, this stuff is often used to market products or services in the name of science nobody actually needs.
This is one of the best videos I have seen in a while. Loved it

You could say
out of goop...
I feel his pain. I’m not even a physics professor or even a physics person but Goop in general grinds my gears. It basically nicely packaged and advertised nonsense
Exactly, a catalogue with articles. THAT'S about it.
at least their title accurately describes the content.
Snek oil
So is most television nowadays.
Cant stand watching any of it.
It's worse than nonsense. It's a grift, a con, a money-grab. And science-ignorant people and more than happy to believe it. Humans are born with the innate proclivity to believe in magic and superstitions. The only antidote to a conman like the goop lab is evidence-based knowledge.
I just re-watched this and I have to say, for someone as passionate, invested and goal-driven in their field as Dr Moriarty, his restraint is palpable and greatly respectable.
This is amazing. The counter part in a video is so rare I'm in love with this
The fact that Netflix hasn't pulled this scam of a show yet says everything

I mean....we live in a neoliberal system, you know? profit has way more importance than so-called truths
It's a show? I thought it was just a disinfomercial.
It's intentional misinformation about science, sponsored by the owners (China).

He's using EXACTLY the type of arguments that these people would use. And I think Phil is responding very well regardless.
As a reformed woo believer, those are exactly the things I would have said when someone tried to debunk my woo.
If things at a quantum level are affected by things as simple as snapping fingers, i would expect the world to be an extremely chaotic place.
In the pure context, they are and it is-that's a bit of the many reasons that in the applied context, they aren't and it isn't.
Absolutely concur with every word coming out of Prof Phillips mouth!!!!! Literally every Word!! This man is my new hero!!!
I'm only about 4 minutes in and laughing at how every sentence he hears gives him a different pained expression.
Insofar this guy is right he can interact with the field of other people. Even over the wire. He's making the prof cringe by watching his video 🤣
I think the professor is more handsome than the "energy" healer
Intelligence is attractive.
It must be due to his “positive energy” lol ;)
In fairness, the energy guy is NOT handsome and I have no idea why they keep saying that.
YES. Science daddy can get it.
He does not have a ring. Maybe he doesn’t believe in it or is committed.
I really enjoy this subject matter coverage. This video, the problems with high school physics, the angry chemist video from Periodic Videos, etc. It’s humbling to hear scientists talk about problems that exist in the more ‘social’ world or that affects people’s personal lives and hear their opinions on the subjects.

You, sir, have earned a troll sticker for this comment
The man is basically a hypnotist. He uses authoritative words and uses physical hypnosis tricks to put his victims into a suggestive state and gives them an experience which brings on a strong placebo effect.
That isn't necessarily bad, atl if they didn't lie about it.
@@Elmithian They HAVE TO LIE ABOUT IT to get the placebo effect. It's just bad. It's disgusting and unethical.
@@nunliski Not really? You just say this is a form of hypnosis that can help the body. No lie there.
@@Elmithian Wtf are you talking about? You're describing something other than what is depicted in the video. It's not salient to make the point that if they completely changed what they were doing then it might be ethical. Duh.
Also, that's still a lie. There is no "helping of the body" occurring.

"Can you blame this guy?" - yes I can. Because he's using those things to rip desperate/naive people off.
The people he's scamming are affluent and have nothing better to do with their lives, don't worry.
And he knows what he is doing, let's face it but I disagree with the notion that 'they are rich so let them be scammed' think of the people that would see this and know that celebrities or others like them are buying into this, suddenly this becomes the new understanding of human physiology and biomechanics

I appreciate your clear, concise perspective.
"A kilogram of steel is heavier that a kilogram of feathers." ~ Gwyneth Paltrow
While an ounce of gold actually is heavier than an ounce of feathers
Technically a kilogram of steel is slightly heavier than a kilogram of feathers - it would weigh less on a scale weight is a force and kilogram is mass, and feathers are substantially less dense than steel and thus displace more air and weight less due to buoyancy
@@AngDavies The weight wouldn't change because of displacement. Weight is the force that gravitation exerts upon a body, equal to the mass of the body times the local acceleration of gravity. Just because it's floating doesn't mean it isn't experiencing a force.
@@AngDavies It was a reference to a viral video "1kg of steel VS 1kg of feathers
". Also, technically buoyancy is an additional force acting on the feathers, which you only observe if you're in atmosphere. You can talk about weight with or without atmosphere. It's like if I said a Ford F-150 weighs 2200 kg, and you said "Well, it weighs more if it has a trailer attached". Yup. Nailed me. :)
🎵 Wrong way down a one way stree-eet.
I love the challenging of his criticism. Shows the scientific process in action!
My favorite Sixty Symbols video. Well done.
The way Phil recoils at "subatomic" at 10:30 gives me life
He nearly popped
And very possibly pooped
10:30 Something snapped there when "the sub-atomic level" was brought up.
It was that section where you can see a clear change in his body language. He was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt up until they crossed the line into 'physics is just magic!' territory.
That was the dance of a very offended physicist lol
I would say that the guy from the video showed, that he definitely can influence the physicst's sanity from another place and time in the universe without touching him.

Those people ought to be sued and Netflix ought to be really ashamed.
Sadly, they're going to use the disclaimer as their defence. It's the idea that "a rational person should see the bit at the start and know this is bunk." In order to win, you'd need to prove that they knew this stuff was harmful and that people would follow what the video was advocating to the financial benefit of the people making it. It's kind of like suing the tobacco companies in the 70's and 80's.
$$$$$$$ Talks m8 !
@@jackielinde7568 I think I clearly heard this "healer" literally advocate/claim that his actions have beneficial/healing properties, and hence this show does by extension. Having a disclaimer upfront does not change that. In fact, this disclaimer is like shouting "this is not a robbery!", while executing an armed robbery of a bank. It has no meaning whatsoever. The reason why this show and Netflix don't get sued out of existence for this blatant quackery has little to do with legality, and everything with how the US legal system is fundamentally broken when it comes to serving justice the rich and powerful (not even remotely a new phenomenon either). This is not a legal problem, it's a cultural one (of which the USA has plenty).

12:54 "quantum energy field chakra" is an amazing combination of words, i have to use that more often xD
“Proved empirically without a shadow of a doubt” is a contradictory sentence. I wonder if goop lab has ever heard of uncertainty in measurement?
"Without a shadow of a doubt" does not mean it's always true. It just means they didn't waste any time doubting it.
@@RFC3514 hahahaha
I know what you're talking about but it's not contradictory at all. It's hyperbolic and perhaps redundant, but doesn't contradict anything.
@@TheJerbol Yes it is. Empirical data can only at best promote one explanation over another. A sizable accumulation of uncontradicted data supporting one explanation gives you a pretty solid theory.
And that's as goos as it's ever going to be. Nothing's ever proven in physics. I can never prove to you that the sun will rise tomorrow. Some yet unobserved fifth force could act during the night and throw our star towards the other end of the galaxy. But it's an unfalsifiable claim so we usually don't bother too much discussing it.
Empiricism is a process (cycle). Facts must be verifiable by other means than our senses. A fact may still be dynamic due to paradigmatic change in verification method. Doubt is a state of mind, not verifiable, but instrumental in the empirical cycle. Even so, doubt is not admissible to a verified fact, only to the paradigms of the verification. That alone does not change a fact. My opinion is that the OP’s quote is indeed contradictory. 😅👍
Really appreciate this.

"The body is multi-dimensional"
Yeah, there's like... four of them. Three if you're only counting spatial.
@@existenceisillusion6528
You recalled correctly ...
Hence, in astronomy, you frequently hear reference to space-time as a single entity, as time, especially when observing anything over large enough distance, matters ...
@@existenceisillusion6528 Yeah, but most people don't really have an intuition for time as a dimension. In everyday contexts, it's often either forgotten because of how differently we perceive it in comparison to the others, or simply ignored (or measured separately) for the sake of convenience.
So you might be only counting the spatial ones. You won't have decoupled them, you're just forgetting one or, more likely, counting what matters for your purposes.
*String theorist enters the chat*
"Actually..."
I, as an astrophysicist, usually call it 3+1, due to the special properties of the temporal “dimension.”
Also yes, we can’t decouple them as far as distance goes, but we can see that time has special properties as a dimension, that the other three don’t. See: the Kerr, Minkowski, and Schwarzschild metric, which I recall all having a sign change.
@@nigelft Yeah, but that doesn't mean there aren't 4 dimensions. There are 4. 3 spatial and 1 of time, right? The fact that they're linked doesn't mean they're the same, right?
Humble brilliance. Gotta respect that.
I like how these goop hacks, just like many other hacks, simultaneously use physics /science to explain and validate their BS while also saying scientists calling them out are being elitist gatekeepers.
Textbook. Plus: all scientists are wrong except when they agree with me.

One of the best comedy lines ever... ............. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@dookiedooks8378 what?
@@BanHelsing it is from a Dara Ó Briain comedy show. Paraphrasing "People often come up to me and say 'Science doesn't know everything', which is true. The thing is Science *knows* it doesn't know everything, or else it'd stop."

Beat me to it. :)

Accurate
Had to think about that for a second...makes total sense.
Underrated comment!
I do that all the time when my arms are loaded with groceries and I need to get the house keys out of my pocket.
I love both the numberphile and computerphile channels, but don't recall ever watching this one before.
Ive got a real nerd-on for this very passionate scientist, so im going to have to watch more :)
Great choice of more phil video at the end
That professor's frustration was really touching 😀
As a medical doctor I can totally understand his frustration. They are playing with people's lives
That dance of frustration when "subatomic level" was mentioned ... love it!
Interesting stuff, and compliments to Dr. Moriarty for not losing his cool.
I'd love to see the same discussion with a psychologist and/or a linguist, because (as you both correctly pointed out) this seems to be just as much about words, their intent and effects as it is about physics. Maybe a psychologist and physicist together could unpick more on whether this is a word-induced illusion (like hypnosis) or just a (possibly intentionally) confusing, jumbled mish-mash of science and psychology.
Great interview
I know Professor Moriarty did a lot of bad things (ex., to Sherlock Holmes), but isn't this punishment a bit too harsh?
RFC3514 I was waiting for him to lose his mind and turn into a whimpering mass of twitching (former) physicist on the floor.
Finally someone mentioned this.
I mean he is still a widely known criminal but almost nobody recognised him
Cracked me up, mate :D
Fair point.

I think it's funny, because he uses "bollocks" which is really quite severe ;)
@@jollyjokress3852 I think the word "bollocks" is the reason he said that
